An accountability court on Tuesday adjourned the hearing of an assets beyond means and money laundering case against Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Hamza Shahbaz till August 10. The duty judge conducted the case proceedings. The court directed the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) to file a reference as soon as possible. The bureau had alleged that Hamza Shahbaz committed money laundering and amassed assets beyond his known sources of income. During the case proceedings, the jail authorities did not produce Hamza before the court owing to Covid-19 protocol. Hamza had approached the Supreme Court for bail in the case after his plea was dismissed by a Lahore High Court bench.
